Partners & Licenses

Market advantage

In Canada, melatonin is regulated as a Natural Health Product and requires a product license to be allowed on the market. Circa Dia obtained a product license for Ninotalem" in November 2006. The quality dossier meets all requirements for a melatonin-containing product to be commercialized in Canada.

Ninotalem" is indicated for sleep disorders and jet-lag in adults and will become available without prescription. Compared to existing brands of melatonin products, Ninotalem" stands out because of its high quality and consistency and its proven track record in several clinical studies.

Building on the success of clinical trials with Ninotalem" in children diagnosed with ADHD and in neurologically multiple disabled children, Circa Dia feels that Ninotalem"  may become the drug of choice to treat sleep disorders in these groups.
